Thanksgiving notes

Thanksgiving… a holiday of thanks but it’s really all about the food. I fed 10 people, no one left hungry and I have leftovers. Good job {pat on the back} and I didn’t stress out, either. I planned the menu well, and the cooking went without a hitch.  Only challenge was so many people meant lots of conversations everywhere. I missed out on lots but that happens with crowds.

Thankful I am, lots of love in my world… family and friends. Life is good — even if I have spent most of the week suffering with a head cold — all in all my life rocks!

Peace.

Now for something completely different…

Very cool day today, temps and events both. I attended a workshop today entitled “writing for the web” sponsored by PLAN. I thought it would be more technical in nature but actually it was closer to being creative than techie. I had fun and found there is a writer lurking within… oooh scary :-) The speaker was Karen Schneider aka FreeRangeLibrarian – I have actually read a number of her online musings so it was cool to meet her in person and learn something about myself.  I am looking at my blog efforts in a new light now.  I do think I will start following my inner muse by applying some of the tips & tricks I learned today.  Stay tuned for the next adventure of the librarian on a bike!

Training continues…

The running with dog works pretty well so far, Last week we went out Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Yesterday we were joined by T & her daughter, Chyenne was very well-behaved. Good thing as T. doesn’t ‘care for dogs’ but worked out fine. Today I was back on 2 wheels! I am hoping the combination of running and riding will help me to get on track — stronger and faster with both.  I am looking at finding (or creating) a training program to follow and see if that will help me with building my base both as a runner and as a cyclist. (only leave swimming :-) to be a triathlete)  Livestrong!
